Re: Debug - Service Entry Point -- WDSCI-L

Hi Doug,

I see similar behavior.

I used to get constant disconnects from RDi until I changed the tcp
keepalive setting.
Now I just about never have a problem.

I used to assume that losing the SEP was something to do with the lost
connection but my experience has been that I don't get RDi disconnects
anymore but I do find that my SEPs will suddenly stop working.

Similar to you - I'll be debugging a program for an hour or maybe less, it
will be working fine. I'll recompile the code and refresh the SEP and it
will continue to work fine.
Then for reason's I've never figured out it will stop breaking in.
Refreshing doesn't help at this point, I have to completely close down RDi.
I think I also tend to end the debug server and restart it.

I've never really figured out the pattern to it so have not posted about it.
But my experience has been similar to your description.

regards,
Craig

That's what prompted my question... the SEP is not going away but when the
program is executed (it still shows in the list of SEPs), the call is not
being intercepted and processed by the debug server which should route it
to the listener on my PC. Sometimes I can remove and add the same SEP,
other times I have to end and restart RDi. Same thing happens if I
recompile the program... which I would expect since it's a new object.

I've never seen an SEP expire. If someone ends the debug server, SEP's do
go away.

Speaking of debugging...

Should a Service Entry Point expire after a period of time?

If I leave an RDi session open for a period of time, say an hour or more,
and attempt to debug a program, the program will not break. I have to (in
all cases) remove the service entry point and recreate it. In some cases,
I have to close RDi, restart and recreate the service entry point. Other
times I'll have to do all of the above as well as stop and restart the
debug server.

Is this normal/expected behavior?

Currently running Version 9.6.0.4 on Windows 10 / 64 bit and OS version
v7r3.
